Okay, I'll have to read it then. I enjoyed the book "Treason," so I guess I'll be all right with "Godless."
I had reservations about subjecting myself to a diatribe against evolution. Evolution doesn't explain the beginning of life, but it shouldn't be trashed for the wrong reasons, like the fact that Liberals think highly of it.

Coulter devotes a few chapters to evolution. Her main argument is not simply that the Left is still ga-ga over it--that certainly does come out, as it ought to--but she raises the typical philosophical objections to Darwinian evolution. The philosophy portions are admittedly better than the science portions, which merely recite things that one can find in any pro-Intelligent Design book.
However, "Godless" is more than just a diatribe against the theory of evolution. It is, as the others were, keen psychological insight into the liberal mind--which is highly appreciated by this former liberal.
